Patient's question:
Little girl, currently 9 years old, just started, saying her throat hurts, noticed that, cough seems to be more severe, and, it seems like the low fever hasn't gone away, asking: If the child has tonsillitis and cries, what should she not eat.Doctor's answer:
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to follow a light diet. Encourage the child to eat more vegetables and fruits, as they are not only light but also rich in various vitamins and trace elements needed by the body, which can help the child fight the disease. For example, pears are cooling and have the effects of reducing fever, soothing the throat, expectorating phlegm, and relieving pain, thereby alleviating symptoms of acute tonsillitis, such as throat discomfort. You can also choose some easily digestible foods for the child, such as thin porridge or well-cooked noodles. At the same time, avoid giving them any "disease-triggering" foods, such as seafood or dog meat, as these are not beneficial for the condition. While maintaining a proper diet, also pay attention not to be picky or biased in eating, to avoid nutritional deficiencies and weakened immunity, which may lead to recurrence.
